Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After reciting Qingci, Jiang Gaogong began to pray to God.  Zhao Ran looked at his gestures carefully and saw that he was pinching the Tianshi Jue. There were no mistakes in his gestures, which showed that he was very skilled in his business.

    Jiang Gaogong pulled out the mahogany sword tied to his back, raised his hand and threw the talisman paper with Qing Ci written on it into the air, and suddenly struck with the sword. This was "obeisance".  The moment the peach wood sword pierced the Qingci talisman, the talisman burst into flames. The scene was truly magical!  This move was quite shocking. Although most of the hundreds of people watching the ceremony had seen it many times before, they still let out exclamations of exclamation.

    The Qingci talisman paper quickly turned into ashes. Jiang Gaogong thrust the peach wood sword behind his back with a clean and neat move.  Then, he stepped forward, picked up the "Holy Lord Who Blessed the House" on the incense table, and circled it around the inner, middle and outer altars.

    Ma Zhili took the lead, and the Taoist boys followed closely behind, following Jiang Gaogong's steps and steps to fight.  Zhao Ran and Zhu Meng had a good understanding of each other and rushed forward at the same time. Unfortunately, Zhao Ran was one point faster after all and got ahead of Zhu Meng. Zhu Meng was almost knocked out of his body and staggered, causing Zhao Ran to snicker secretly.

    The six people each held a magic weapon and started to fight according to the steps of Yin and Yang Bagua steps. They chanted words and sang the "House-Suppressing Mantra".

    Zhao Ran held the purification bottle in his arms and followed behind him, chanting sutras and mantras, circling around the directions of the Yin and Yang Bagua. Suddenly he couldn't laugh or cry. He secretly thought that he was a national cadre before time travel, but he didn't expect that he would be doing this now. If he was like those in the past,  When your colleagues see you, will they all burst into laughter?

    After going back and forth for ninety-nine and eighty-one times, and singing the "House-Suppressing Curse" countless times, Jiang Gaogong finally stopped, and Zhao Ran and others quickly returned to their positions.

    Next, the "Holy Lord Who Blessed the House" returned to his place, and several portraits of the Holy Lord enshrined on the incense table were taken out. The servants of the Dong family took them out and posted them outside the door, and then removed the outer altar and the middle altar.  Unlocking the talisman paper of Erbasu Town House - the talisman paper is a treasure of Dong's house. Several important figures of the Dong family carefully lifted the inner altar and moved it to the main hall. This completed the process of unblocking the altar.

    Dong's servants presented a plate with three animals and nine fruits, and placed it on the incense table in the inner altar. They lit three candles and nine incense to make a ritual offering.  After Jiang Gaogong led Zhao Ran and others to recite the ritual words of farewell to the Holy King several times under the altar, the entire Antu Town Zhaihuan Town Ceremony was completed.

    The Dong family held a banquet to entertain distinguished guests from all over the place who came to watch the ceremony and congratulate them. Jiang Gaogong and other six Taoist priests who came down from the Wuji Temple naturally had good wine and good food, but they were not allowed to drink with "ordinary people", so they opened a separate restaurant in the inner hall.  table.  During this period, Dong Fanlin came in person to accompany him on several rounds. The county magistrate, county magistrate, county captain and several Jin gentry also came to pay their respects once, and seemed very attentive and considerate.

    After dinner, Jiang Gaogong was invited by Director Dong to the back house for a "talk", while Zhao Ran and the other five people drank tea in the hall and waited.  Fang Zhihe winked at Zhao Ran, which made Zhao Ran feel uncomfortable, so he asked in a low voice: "Senior Brother Fang, is there something wrong?"

    Fang Zhihe leaned over and whispered: "Do you know what Gao Gong was doing in the back house?"

    Zhao Ran said: "I don't know" Wanting to hear Fang Zhihe's explanation, Fang Zhihe retracted his head pretending to be mysterious and smiled without saying a word.  Zhao Ran had long seen that Senior Brother Fang was an extremely gossipy person - this gossip was not that gossip. He loved to receive gossip and even spread it, so he refrained from asking.  During the past year in the Sutra Hall, Senior Brother Fang's favorite thing to do was to spread all kinds of gossip to the two newcomers, Zhao Ran and Zhu Meng. He would tell them naturally without asking.

    Sure enough, after a while, Fang Zhihe couldn't help it any longer. He leaned over and whispered, "Gao Gong went to the inner house to take over some work and earn some extra money."

    Zhao Ran came to his senses and secretly guessed what kind of foreign wealth Jiang Gaogong earned. Did he open a small altar alone, or start a divination class?  Or is it to pray for others?  I wonder how much I can get?

    After changing two cups of tea, Jiang Gaogong finally came back, his eyebrows expressionless, still looking enigmatic.  All the Taoist boys got up and went out with Jiang Gaogong. Before leaving, the steward of Dongzhai sealed each of them with five taels of silver - this was silver as a reward and was not included in the bookkeeping, which must be entered into the public account of Wujiyuan.

    This little money was no longer in the eyes of Zhao Ran, who was rich, but when he accidentally calculated it, he couldn't help but be a little shocked.  As a Taoist boy who chants sutras, as long as he excels in his homework and stays in the first class, he will have the opportunity to go down to the mountain for fasting several times a month. In a year, it will not be a problem to earn two or three hundred taels easily.  If there was an opportunity to preside over religious services, this number would probably increase several times.

    When he returned to Wuji Courtyard in the evening, he had nothing else to do. Zhao Ran tidied up a little, took a thin blanket with him, hung a hand stove around his waist, and prepared to go to the Sutra Library.  It was late winter now, and although there was no risk of draft in the scripture library, it was still cold. Zhao Ran couldn't stand it without a thin blanket and a hand stove nearby.

    He lifted the curtain and came out, only to see Zhu Meng sitting in the hall, not knowing what he was thinking.  Zhao Ran ignored him and was about to push the door open when he was stopped by Zhu Meng: "Junior Brother Zhao?"

    Zhao Ran¡¯s steps stagnated, and he turned around to look at Zhu Meng, only to seeZhu Meng hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm leaving."

    "Um?"

    "Haha, I'm leaving"

    Zhao Ran was stunned, and after a moment he woke up, with mixed feelings in his heart: "Are you leaving?"

    "Yes, let's go to Huayun Pavilion. Junior Brother Zhao, I don't know what to say. Anyway, I feel uncomfortable saying something."

    "Please say."

    "Me and Wenxiu have been childhood sweethearts since childhood"

    "She is Zhou Yumo now." Zhao Ran said coldly.

    " No matter what she is now, in my eyes, she has always been Wenxiu. I just want to have a calm talk with Junior Brother Zhao, and I also hope that Junior Brother Zhao will put aside the previous unhappiness between you and me. Wenxiu and I have known each other for so many years, and I have  The understanding between her is not comparable to that of Junior Brother Zhao, and my father and Uncle Zhou are also close friends, and the elders all approve of it."

    "Junior brothers, I think you have forgotten something. We are all already monks."

    "Taoism, at least Zhengyi Sect cannot restrain the love between men and women, right? Otherwise, why should I enter Taoism?"

    "Junior brothers, I envy you for having the foundation to practice Taoism, but don't you think you are wasting your talent? Having the opportunity to enter a pavilion to learn Taoism, is this an opportunity of a lifetime? But you are obsessed with pursuing men and women.  Where do we put the Taoism and the law of love?"

    "Junior Brother Zhao, I always thought that you had learned the Taoist scriptures, but I didn't want you to say such words. The Supreme Being forgets love, but it is not ruthless. The word love is already in the way of heaven, so how can it be ignored? As for how to get rid of it  'Forgetting', each has its own rules and regulations, the way of heaven is ever-changing, and it depends on one mind. If one can achieve enlightenment only by being ruthless, then where can there be so many couples practicing Taoism? As for the prohibitions advocated by the Quanzhen Dharma School, they must be ruthless.  But because time is limited, I might delay my practice."

    Zhao Ran was silent, and Zhu Meng continued: "I just want to say that no matter what happens with Wenxiu and I, at least I can have the opportunity to practice Taoism To put it bluntly, ten years, twenty years, three  Ten years is meaningless. After a hundred years, Junior Brother Zhao will be nothing but dust, so what will happen to Wenxiu? That¡¯s it for now, I hope Junior Brother Zhao will think deeply about it.¡±

    The two of them faced each other in silence in the dim light of the oil lamp, speechless for a long time.

    It wasn¡¯t until a crackling sound of lamp oil was heard that Zhao Ran slowly said: ¡°I will keep your words in mind.¡±

    "I hope so."

    "When are you leaving?"

    "It's only been a few days Wuji Academy has received the documents transferred from Huayun Pavilion. As soon as someone from Huayun Pavilion comes, I will leave Wuji Academy. Junior Brother Zhao, although I have been angry with you for a year, I have to admit that,  You are very talented, but it¡¯s a pity I hope you can take more care of yourself!"

    Zhao Ran nodded, pushed the door open, and headed towards the Sutra Collection Tower.  In the snow, he was so depressed that he wanted to scream.

    ??Thanks to yangzhigang, Shun Qiziran, Tinghai¡¯s Song, Nine Lives Xuanmao and other brothers for their rewards.  The old fan lost the manuscript and was in grief all afternoon.  I just finished rewriting this chapter, so I'm a little late, so I'm sorry.
